Goodness! The weather here is so fickle. One day freezing (literally),the next I can't even wear a cardigan. Oh well, it is niceto mix it up now and then. I hope everyone had a lovelyHalloween! Last night I went as Jackie O, and my boyfriendwent as an assassinated JFK. And the night before that I wasa groupie rocker chick, totally opposite from the normalme. I even wore black eyeshadow.

Yay! It is finally cold enough for this chunkyknit sweater jacket I purchased second-hand thissummer. I knew it was way too early for it, but I couldjust envision myself living in it this winter. Also, Iwoke up early this morning and took these photos,and was blown away by the gorgeous lighting it broughtto photos! It's just so much easier to take photos inthe evening to allow myself to sleep in, but I think Iam going to do this more often!

Oh and this morning I spoke with my adviser aboutnext semester. Only FOUR more classes untilI graduate. Scary, but so so exciting. World, here Icome! One last piece of exciting news: I was chosen,as Teen Vogue's Top 100 Bloggers to help launchtheir new website, Fashion Click. The new way to browseblogs. I am absolutely honored! Check it out here.

This past weekend I did one of my absolute favorite things.Reveal all of my sweaters boxed up from last winter!It is like Christmas. Somehow I always forget about anitem or two. Anyways, this embellished cardigan isone of my most prized possession that I got fromLondon last year. It is so unique and I can pair itwith any ordinary thing and turn it to something fabulous.

Oh yes, and below is my first collage! I took mostof your advice and chose to play around with Picasa.It really is alot of fun, and I came up with a few.Here is another A/W inspiration collage:

And to make it more my style,I paired them with this feminine pearl studded sweater.The little pearls are so delicate and girly! I just love it

Oh and for those who were wondering, the fashionshow was absolutely wonderful. There weresome great designs, and the hair and makeupwas so unique. I will post pictures as soon asI get them sent to me.

My turband finally came in the mail! I am quitesure I have never been so in love with a headpiece.I paired it with this basic outfit, because sometimesreally all you need is a few good accessories. And of course,my Topshop bag and shoes did not let me down either.Well tonight I am going to model in a local fashion show,where we will be modeling "wearable art". Which is oneof my true beliefs. Fashion=art.

Also, some have you have been asking if my hair is darker,and why yes it is! A few weeks ago it was dyed forsaid fashion show. I absolutely love it! If youall did not know, I am half persian, so I am goingback to my natural shade.

Ah! I should really be studying right now rather than blogging,but I finally got my new lens, and just had to experiment with it!For those who are wondering, it is a Canon 50mm f/1.8 lens.Oh, It was love at first sight. On another note,I am having such fun playing with new hemlines onskirts and dresses! It is so much fun to layer with, and itreally makes sitting/walking in the wind much easier. In fact,I quite like it when I am wearing a flowy skirt and it is windy.The dramatic movement of the fabric is a fun way towalk around town. Plus the pattern of this one is to diefor.

I hope everyone is having a lovely week. With beautysurrounding me like this, I know I am.

Well thanks to this fickle weather, I was able to pullout my green anorak the other day! I am so excited to layerthis piece and pair it with all of the girly/feminine piecesin my closet (like this Topshop dress- it is my absolute favorite).Yes, it is surely a go-to piece for me. I cansee myself layering tons of knits underneath it on deadcold days. Plus, it is perfect for rainy days, as it is waterproof.

What is your go-to piece this fall?

By the way, I am loving my record playerway too much. I already have collected 4 new ones;Janis Joplin, Fleet Foxes, Abba, and Chicago. Anyoneknow of any an amazing record store I need tohit up in my life time?

Oh! And if you have not added me yet on bloglovin',I would be absolutely thrilled! I am finally beingactive on the thing. It really is quite great.Hope everyone is having a lovely week!
